Hans - I think you need to add the tabulators (19?? census) to your list for
RPG.  There is a very direct line evolution from the Tabs to the language
that was designed to emulate them.

We should also add a "blip" at 2001 for /free which is every bit as much an
evolutionary landmark  as "C with classes" was for C/C++.

19?? - Tabulators for US census etc.
1961 - RPG
1965 - RPG II
1979 - RPG III
1995 - RPG IV
2001 - RPG IV /free
